Two days later.

Something bad happened.

crash-bang!

It's raining heavily!

The cold icy rain patted wildly on his face.

The rain keeps falling.

After a short period of time, it turned into sleet and did not stop until the latter half of the night.

It's 2nd day.

The trouble is big, the road is muddy, and the road condition is worrying.

Human feet step on, one foot is deep and the other is shallow, the soles of the feet are covered with mud, and they can’t be shaken off.

Not to mention the heavy carriage full of grain, the carts are stuck in the mud more than three inches deep, the cows and horses are pulling in the front, the people are behind, hehe, pushing hard, people, horses and cows are exhausted It's choking.

The long escort dragon who was not walking fast, this time has become as slow as a tortoise, almost moving forward a little bit.

Fortunately, this kind of thing is not a sudden situation. The escorts have experienced countless times. If they walk slowly, they will walk slowly. Just walk slowly.

Seeing this situation, Dian Wei's mood was turbulent for a while, what cement roads, asphalt roads, and viaducts appeared in his mind.

Then he discovered that he didn't know how to build roads at all, and he was not in this profession in his previous life.

To repair the cement concrete pavement, you have to have cement first, but what about cement? It seems to be burnt out of limestone and clay. How is it burning?

Everything is unclear!

Suppressing these mixed thoughts, Dian Wei got off his horse and went to help the cart. He was very strong, and his giant strength to move the mountain was not just because he was able to move the mountain.

When encountering the carriage in the pit, more than a dozen escorts can't push it with the strength of milking, and he can move the entire car out by himself.

For such a difficult journey, everyone suffered for two days, and most of them were tired to wish one were dead.

However, after that, the road was open and unimpeded, and the small goal of walking a hundred miles can be easily achieved every day.

This day.

From a distance, Dian Wei faintly heard the sound of gongs and drums.

"Oh, someone smokes, it's almost to the'Mirror Lake'."

Old Zheng pointed to the front, opened the mouth and said: "Go to another section of the road, you should be able to see a fork."

After a while, as expected, a fork in the road appeared in front of it.

The escort dragon turned a corner.

Suddenly, a huge lake came into view!

The lake water is like a bright mirror, the sky and water are the same color, vast and boundless.

Under the sunlight, the lake water is quiet, bright, jade green jade green, just like a flawless jade.

A gust of wind blew, the microwave suddenly appeared, and the lake surface was like a wrinkled silk. The sun shone, sparkling, and the lake was full of broken gold.

Old Zheng said with a smile: "Look, this is Mirror Lake, the world is beautiful, nothing more beautiful can be imagined."

"The scenery is really good."

Dian Wei nodded.

At the same time.

The sound of gongs and drums is louder.

Dian Wei took a glance, and happened to see a group of people walking towards a long embankment leading to the lake. These people were dressed in colorful, lively like dancing gods.

A wooden bed is carried in the crowd.

The bed is covered with multi-colored flowers.

Among the flowers, sitting two children, a man and a woman, without clothes.

Dian Wei looked inexplicable: "What are they doing?"

Old Zheng said silently, "What else can I do, sacrifice."

Dian Wei eyebrow raised: "Sacrifice?"

Old Zheng looked at the vast lake and sighed: "This Mirror Lake lives in a Banshee, the towns and villages around Mirror Lake, every year Sacrifice to Banshee once. The tribute must be a living person, ranging from a pair of golden boys and jade maidens to as many as ten young men or women."

Dian Wei felt like he heard: "This Waiting for the scourge, why didn’t anyone get rid of her?"

Old Zheng fell into silence, and after a while, he explained depressedly:

"I can’t say that this Banshee is a scourge. This Mirror Lake is rich in water quality and can feed several millions of people. However, there is a vicious mutant beast called'Yaksha' inhabited in the lake, which is extremely reproductive, and an animal tide will inevitably erupt every once in a while.

The'Yaksha' can run to the shore, like a locust with nothing to eat, barren, humans and animals will be killed wherever it passes, and the harm is endless.

Until a female Martial Artist loses control , Becomes Demon and enters the Mirror Lake, feeds on Yaksha, and becomes Yaksha’s natural enemy. This suppresses Yaksha, and there is no more harm from beasts.

But Banshee must eat people in order to remain rational , Otherwise, one day, she will become a monster that is more terrifying and more harmful than Yaksha.

So, Shangyang Aristocratic Family and Banshee reached an agreement, ordering anyone living around Mirror Lake to have every year Sacrifice to Banshee once, and over time, a fixed custom has been formed."

Dian Wei was speechless for a long time.

Old Zheng pointed to the people of the great dancing god, shook his head and sighed: "Look at those people, singing and dancing, how happy they are, because Mirror Lake Banshee is like a god in their eyes, awesome and awe-inspiring. They and Mirror Lake Banshee have been tightly bound together, forming a mutually dependent relationship, and no one can do without."

Dian Wei has nothing to say about this, what can he say? It.

Speaking scientifically, this is especially ecological balance, interdependence, and everyone is in this food chain.

At this time, the team of Jumping Gods came to the end of the Long Causeway.

Dian Wei watched as a group of people beating gongs and drums, and in a warm call, pushed the wooden planks full of flowers into the lake.

The two children on the poor bed still didn't realize that death was coming, and they thought it was fun to dance with their hands and feet.

The wooden bed drifts a little bit.

At this time, the sound of horses hooves came galloping, and Song Jincheng, who was in charge of the back of the palace, rushed up and looked at the sacrifice scene with interest, surprisingly said: "Is this the Mirror Lake sacrifice? this Song This is the first time I have seen people."

Old Zheng turned his head and said: "You have escorted food before, haven't you seen it?"

Song Jincheng: "No, we are all Passing by, there is no such a coincidence."

Old Zheng think about it, suddenly!

oh la la With a sound, a huge monster burst out of the water.

Dian Wei eyes shrank, could not help holding his breath.

I saw that a tall silhouette appeared in the white water waves. The upper body was a woman without clothes, and the lower body was underwater, which seemed to have a serpentine silhouette.

Some parts of Banshee's body, such as the chest, are as smooth as a mirror, and some parts are covered with a layer of blue scales.

Her hair is like kelp, her eyes are blue, and her facial features are extremely beautiful, giving people an amazing feeling.

"Mirror Lake Banshee, I still look back for the first time." Song Jincheng took a deep breath and said in a low voice.

Old Zheng has no expression on his face and cold eyes in his eyes.

Dian Wei thought of something, retracted his gaze, and glanced at Old Zheng.

Presumably, at this moment Old Zheng thinks of his child, the child who was eaten by Demon. In this situation, his feelings must be mixed feelings, which is difficult for others to understand.

On the long embankment, when the group of people who danced the gods saw Mirror Lake Banshee, they all squatted on the ground and repeatedly squatted their heads.

next moment!

Mirror Lake Banshee raised his hand and grabbed the wooden bed, pinched the two children who had been frightened and put them into their mouths like candy.

Dian Wei couldn't bear to look straight.

Mirror Lake Banshee swallowed two children, suddenly looked up at Dian Wei's side, and found a long escort dragon.

The next moment, she suddenly swam over.

"This..."

Old Zheng's face changed drastically.

Song Jincheng was also taken aback and became nervous.

Seeing this, Dian Wei's first reaction was to grab the reins and clamp the horse's belly with his legs, ready to run away.
